Geneon goes Universal

[robkelk]

At least, it does in Japan. http://www.variety.com/article/VR111799 ... Id=19&cs=1]According to Variety, Universal Pictures is buying Geneon from Dentsu. No word whether Geneon USA is included in the deal...

I wonder how this affects the current deal with Geneon allowing Funimation to produce/distribute their titles. I'd hate to see stuff like Nanoha, Hellsing Ultimate, and Black Lagoon get tossed into limbo again.

Was searching for a non-existent Black Lagoon thread and yadda yadda, I was wondering why when recently browsing a local store why something like Haibane Renmei was coming from Universal. Hellsing Ultimate on the other hand's a joint Universal/Madman release for some discs. Have yet to come across anything on Nanoha - other than they've got to edit the movies to pass a few censorship boards.
